I run track and approve of this message. I've run many a good race the day after some spaghetti and fresh bread or perhaps some hearty lasagna and garlic bread. With a small side of penne pasta and maybe just a random potato for good measure. Then again, I run the sprints and I've run a good race after a few tater tots and chicken nuggets too...

Spaghetti is served with an almost limitless variety of different sauces which vary from region to region, and household to household. That's one of the things that makes Italian cuisine at its best so brilliant: local tradition meet local ingredients. A good starting point as far as spaghetti is Ragu Bolognese (although it's actually more traditionally served with tagliatelle than spaghetti).

Which is why I don't get pissed off over "Americanized" Italian dishes. Immigrants came here and used what they found here to make new dishes. They made dishes that worked for their way of life. I don't know why everyone gets their panties in a bunch because the American-Italian dishes we make here aren't found in Italy. Of course not, because you're not dealing with the same regional food.

I don't know why people keep bringing up carbs. Obviously, you don't eat the whole thing in one sitting by yourself or something. It's equal to the amount of some spaghetti and a side of garlic bread. Jeez.

It's just an incredibly energy intensive meal with little-to-no nutritional value, relatively speaking. Also, and I realize this is subjective, but it just seems like too much. (As in, perhaps it's not the most tasteful way to present or consume any of the foods involved.)

You wanted to know why people keep bringing up carbs and I explained it. Some people enjoy the EpicMealTime-esque treatment of food and others think it's disgusting (both veins have shown themselves in the comments).

If you had only cared about your own experience with the "spaghetti-loaf" then you wouldn't have taken a picture of it and shard that picture with Reddit. You obviously wanted some sort of feedback.

Meh, what can you do? It's not my cup of tea, but if you enjoy it (as does a clear majority of /r/food) then knock yourself out.

Your own personal enjoyment of your food is much more important, anyways. It's always somewhat amusing to me when my friends insist on photographing and cataloging their restaurant experiences on Facebook. I'm totally a live and let live person, but I think that when someone's enjoyment of an experience is a function of how their friends perceive the experience then they're probably due for some introspection.

I'd also point out that I think sharing pictures of a restaurant outing is very different from sharing your own creations (though I do none of either). I think your post was interesting and a lot of people liked it (I think this means it achieved your objectives), but I can't say I'd be eating the loaf anytime soon.

It's as if he made a giant pot of soup for an entire family for a week, and you started criticizing him for making so much soup, since eating all that soup is excessive for one person and it would be unhealthy. Guess what: It's not for one person. You dumb fuck. Jesus, you're literally as shit-stupid as a jar of ass-mayonnaise.

It's literally no different than eating a small amount of spaghetti and a slice of garlic bread. When someone posts a big bowl of spaghetti on here, you don't start raping our faces with "HERP DERP CARBS DREP FUCK ME IM FAGET", do you?

I bet you're one of those people who think that a burger with donuts for buns is considerably worse than eating a burger and then donuts for dessert. You fucking ass-tard.

You're a fucking idiot. Pasta with garlic bread is amazing. You're obviously just some fucking idiotic elitist Euro-tard who thinks that le American way of doing it must be bad. Guess what, dipshit, it's delicious. Fuck you and fuck your pasta with no sauce but basil and fuck your overpriced fizzy water, you fucking cock-gobbler.

So I have to ask, I've made this a few times now, but how did you cut into it and avoid smashing it. I have fantastic knives, but I'm doing something wrong. How firm was the crust, I thought maybe I'm overcooking it. Thanks.

Roll it into a 16 x 12 inch rectangle and cut slits to the filling about 1 1/2 inches apart for the braids. For the top brush egg whites on then I added parmesan, parsley, and garlic powder. You can also just google it and the recipe is easy to follow.

Yes, it is a serrated bread knife. I think I just over cook the bread and end up putting to much pressure as you said on it when I cut into it. I have just recently started making homemade loafs of bread too and I do something very similar. I'll just try and be a bit more passive next time. Thanks.

Don't know why it would be soggy unless you use a really runny sauce for the spaghetti. We did make the spaghetti sauce a little thicker than normal by using a little can of tomato paste, 1 cup water and the spaghetti sauce mix packets you buy at the store for like 80 cents.

Actually it was not at all like that. The dough turned out crispy on the outside and was cooked nicely inside. We brushed it with the egg white before putting it in the oven which also helped the parsley and Parmesan yummyness stick to it.

I was worried that the next day it would be soggy if we tried to microwave it or something. But today we just stuck it back in the oven for a few minutes and it was still really good.

Years ago someone made the first post (I can still picture that blog now). And since then it's been re-posted, [fixed], changed around, and basically run into the ground to the point where more and more people are criticizing it.

it's about the pointlessness of combining two things that are much better off individually (see the Shooter sandwich)

I'm with you on this post, but I'll defend the shooter. It is the ultimate practical sandwich. It is not meant for a dinner party, or just a normal Tuesday night. Wonder where the "shooter" came from in the name? It was invented as a way for manly men who shoot at animals for sport and nourishment to have a juicy steak while out in the field, miles (and possibly days) from any kitchen. It is optimized for storage and unrefrigerated transport, not immediate consumption. I can't think of a better way to have steak with sauteed onions and mushrooms while stopping for lunch on camping trip in the distant forest.

We just used Rhode's white bread frozen dough you can buy it at Smith's or walmart or wherever.. They come in little frozen circles and you just let it thaw until you can roll it out with a rolling pin and use some flour so it doesn't stick.

No need to be upset. I'm just trying to have you understand that when someone calls you out for reposting something, there's a chance they're correct. Unless you're trying to be obtuse. In which case you're succeeding in spades.

The link from 9 days ago was new to me. And it was tasty. (sadly i didn't use the rest of the bread in time and it went bad.)
